Bought, owned and sold a lot of guns over many, many years. When you bought a new gun, generally you cleaned it, took it to the range and shot it. It worked right out of the box. You might want better sights or a different trigger, you had to sight it in, but it worked. Nowadays it seems as if you buy a gun, across disciplines and it has to go to a smith, or you have to buy a slicked up gun from a smith or have one built. I still have a few old friends and only a couple have I tinkered with or sent to anyone. Haven't bought but one new gun in a good many years and that, a good brand, went back to the manufacturer. Came back better, but still needy. When did it all change? Around the time you started to buy devices with "Some assembly Required" AKA a box of parts?
